&gt; Hi everyone,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I attended AWS Re:Invent this year and liked a lot. Right place to go.<br>
&gt; AWS announced there the new C3 family of HPC instances.<br>
&gt; IŽm anxious to test them in my models but I understand that StarCluster must<br>
&gt; take aware of them in the code.<br>
&gt; So when will be the C3s available?<br>
